Its beyond ********, its better in every category and it has lower reload speeds. GG SOE, just what NC needed.
I fear no counter sniper. But that gun, it scares me. No seriously, velocities like that are insane, and the mag size is still 4 by the looks of it. I am gonna say that the numbers could be tweaked to make it less OP, like maybe make it fire 700 m/s rounds with 3 bullets in a mag and 500 dmg at 300m, 750 at 75m. And a longer rechamber time (like in the 1.5 sec range) so that follow up shots take a good long time. high alpha, low sustained. NC weapons in a nutshell.
This reminds me of those days when the NC had the only Bolt Action rifle and the whine was set to 110%.
Meh... The dream of every sniper... Oh for flob sake, now more 4th faction is flooding in my faction. Like this.
Ah COME ON guys... Its not even released yet. And fear not it will get nerved so hard so that it ends up as a shotgun eventually
Well, to be fair, my post was entirely sarcastic I've been Vanu since a couple of weeks after Planetside 1 launched. I ain't switching now! Vanu for life! Though I will shed some tears when the NC get their Railjack and I'm stuck with the Shade. NC players have actually been complaining on the test server forums that they get this "boring" rifle while VS get something unique. Strange, since given their current states, I'd trade the Shade for the Railjack in a heartbeat.
